STOCKTON - A commotion between two adult brothers Sunday afternoon at Food 4 Less in the 200 block of East March Lane escalated outside the store, resulting in two arrests, police reported.

Shortly after 2:30 p.m. Sunday, the 28-year-old victim was in the store when he was punched by his brother, 23-year-old Christopher White, according to police. The brother left the store, and White followed, punching him more times until several citizens got involved and tackled White to the ground, holding him until a security guard placed him in handcuffs.

When officers arrived, White's girlfriend, Renee Robinson, 20, became upset and started causing problems with the officers, according to the report. Before they could leave the scene with White in the back of a patrol car, Robinson opened the door to let White escape. Officers then attempted to arrest Robinson, but she took off running while White got out of the patrol car. He was immediately detained and Robinson was apprehended, police reported.

White was arrested on suspicion of battery and being a parolee at large, while Robinson was arrested on suspicion of resisting arrest and lynching, the act of seizing someone who is under arrest and in custody of a police officer.
